[0:01] because it feels like a betrayal
[0:02] from the american PRESIDENT.
[0:04] We have fought shoulder to
[0:07] shoulder with your soldiers in
[0:12] afghanistan and iraq
[0:12] where we
[0:13] have had greenlandic soldiers
[0:13] and danish soldiers fighting.
[0:17] Fighting for freedom and for
[0:18] democracy.
[0:20] Right now we have unwillingly
[0:23] become the front for the same
[0:26] fight for democracy, for
[0:28] freedom, and for human rights.
[0:31] We want democracy but we are not
[0:32] respected.
[0:37] Please, MR. PRESIDENT,
[0:39] please
[0:40] all americans, we would love you
[0:40] to act.
[0:44] We need you to act.
[0:44] We need you to call all your
[0:47] senators, all your politicians
[0:49] come and tell them they need to
[0:49] act.
[0:52] They need to stop your
[0:52] PRESIDENT.
[0:56] This is not only a matter of
[0:57] greenland, this is a matter of
[0:59] the world order as we know it.
[1:01] A matter of sovereignty and it
[1:05] is a matter of the border.
[1:07] Please, act.
[1:08] Please, speak to all you know
[1:08] about this.
[1:12] Just to make sure you know,
[1:14] greenland is protected by all
[1:17] european countries now -- almost
[1:18] -- and also denmark has troops.
[1:21] This would not be just an attack
[1:23] on greenland, this would also be
[1:26] an attack on the nato alliance.
[1:29] Wake up, america.
[1:31] I know it is early your time,
[1:32] wake up.
[1:35] You need to act.
[1:38] We can fight this fight together
[1:38] .
[1:42] Within the U.S., europe, and
[1:42] also for greenland.
[1:45] please support greenland and
[1:46] follow our demonstration
[1:50] campaign on
[1:51] supportgreenland.Org.
[1:55] Juan: could you talk about the
[1:55] claim PRESIDENT Trump if he does
[1:58] not act united states doesn'
[1:58] t
[2:00] acquire greenland or buy
[2:02] greenland, that there are
[2:06] threats from china and russia to
[2:06] move in?
[2:11] >>
[2:12] well, this situation is very
[2:14] bad.
[2:14] We can'
[2:15] t go back in time but we
[2:16] can wake up now.
[2:19] It is very important that the
[2:21] american people all over the
[2:24] U.S., they act now fre to
[2:25] contact her politicians.
[2:27] Contact your press.
[2:31] Make sure to tell them you
[2:32] support greenland not only
[2:32] because of greenland, but
[2:35] because greenland is now the
[2:36] front for the fight for
[2:37] democracy.
[2:41] It is very important also to
[2:46] understand this is not just
[2:46] a
[2:47] politcal or geopolitical fight.
[2:48] This is a matter of trust
[2:50] between the people.
[2:52] We can trust our democracies.
[2:55] We have an election in greenland
[2:58] last year and we had -- we have
[3:00] an election in denmark this
[3:01] year.
[3:01] It is very important to
[3:02] understand there is a close
[3:03] cooperation between the
[3:06] greenlandic and danish leader.
[3:10] American presidents try to
[3:11] split
[3:12] our two countries but it only
[3:14] made us stand even closer
[3:14] together.
[3:17] So the leader of greenland
[3:19] message is very clear that if we
[3:21] have to choose, if greenland had
[3:24] to choose between united states
[3:26] or denmark, greenland will
[3:29] choose denmark and europe.
[3:33] So it is very important that you
[3:35] wake up and you see this not
[3:36] only as a fight for greenland,
[3:40] but also for the trust.
[3:43] We as greenlanders can have for
[3:45] the americans and the nato
[3:46] alliance.
[3:48] So this is not only greenland
[3:52] being attacked, this is
[3:54] democracy, freedom, and the
[3:56] world order as we know it that
[3:56] is being attacked.
